Bill Introductions for March 6-10, 2023
The following education-related bills were introduced in the Minnesota Legislature during the tenth week of the 2023 session. Each Friday, we will publish relevant bills that have been introduced during the week.
MSBA hopes that school board members will monitor these bill introduction listings, as they provide updated information about the bills under consideration that may have implications for school boards and school districts across the state. It is critical for board members to understand how introduced bills may impact their own unique school districts.
